When does everyone go to the chat room? I am on here a lot during the day (and sometimes night too,lol) but I never see anyone in the chat room! With other groups I have been in we had 'community meetings' one night a week to discuss anything we are frustrated about or things we love about the site, do you do anything like that?

Just a note, you can no longer connect using a chat client such as Mirc, unless you're a registered user on the chat server.

To register, you need to log in via the webpage using the flash client. Once you've joined, click "Options", then "Register". Once you've registered, you can now connect using a chat client. You just need to type in "/msg nickserv identify password" (password being your password) when you sign in for the server to recognise you.

I registered my nick, set it as the channel's preferred nick in my client with password (using X-chat on OS X) and it still says I can't connect/names must be registered for client users/etc. Any ideas? I never get to a point where it lets me on the server so that I can identify myself.

In X-chat I get no pop-up, it just repeatedly tries to connect and then tells me that I have to register first. My nick is set properly in the channel preferences with my password, but it won't allow me to connect to the server outright so I can even type /identify before it disconnects and loops again.

The link will come back as Goose gets everything set up. It's a slow process because he's doing this in his free time, and he doesn't get paid to do it, so be patient with it, please. Rach's link should work, though, for now.
